One Roof With Five Hot Jerks

Sid’s Point of View

Woah, I’m such a good looking man. No wonder everyone falls on me. I bit my lower lip and caressed my chin. I nodded when I saw how handsome I am in the mirror. Goodness, Missy will see me play on stage later.

“I’m nervous,” I held my chest while looking at my reflection in the mirror.

“Why?” Giles asked while holding his cellphone and obviously typing a message there.

“Isn’t the reason obvious?” I turned to him, “I’m nervous because we’re going to play on stage.”

“What’s so scary about that?” Byron asked and crossed his legs, “This isn’t the first time we’re going to play.”

I nodded, “Yes, this isn’t really the first time we’re going to play, but this is the first time Missy will be watching us.”

Alyn looked at me but he immediately averted his gaze. Oh, did I get his attention? You know, I’m really curious on what’s going on with Alyn and Missy. However, I couldn’t bring myself to ask because Alyn might punch me. I don’t want to waste this face. It’s a pity if I get scratches on my face.

Giles tilted his head, “What does it have to do with your nervousness?”

“I don’t want Missy to fall in love with me,” then I pouted.

“What the hell, bro?” Byron’s brow furrowed as if he’s disgusted to what I said.

“Ouch!” I held my head where the lid of the bottle that Alyn was holding hit my head. While Giles, on the other hand just laughed.

“That’s what you get for assuming things,” Byron said. “I’m sure Tardy will fall in my hands,” and then he raised his eyebrow.

“Do you wanna die?” Alyn gave him a death glare.

“Woah~” Giles clapped his hand, “Does Alyn like Yanny?”

“Fuck you,” he even showed his middle finger to us.

Byron and I just laughed. Alyn seemed in a bad mood, he stood up and took his phone out of his pants pocket.

“I almost forgot. Where’s Louis?” Giles roamed his eyes in the room.

Oh, yeah? I just noticed now that we weren’t with Louis. Where did that one go? We will be called later to play.

“I’m calling him right now,” Alyn answered while looking at his phone. “He’s not answering.” His brows met. Oh-oh.

I scratched my head, “Where that idiot go?”

“Maybe where Tardy was?” Byron smirked.

Maxine’s Point of View

“Then … see you later,” Louis messed up my hair so I turned to him.

“Hmm? Where are you going? Aren’t you going to watch the band?”

“Nope,” he shook his head, “I’m going somewhere.”

I nodded, “Alright, take care.”

He just said ‘thanks’ and turned away.

A few moments later, the crowd suddenly became noisy. We waited for another minutes for the band to show up. The curtain on the stage began to went up slowly, and I was stunned when I saw the five monkeys came out from there. As they stood there firmly as the crowd became noisier.

???

…

!!!

Don’t tell me, that the Mugen band that Louis told me and what the students are waiting for … are actually them?

I was still shocked as I watched the five men on stage tuning their instruments. While the students in the covered court did not stop screaming. They are like pigs being slaughtered with too much noise. You will still hear some words that will make you eww. For instance:

“Kyah! Byron is so handsome! I want to date him and even if I’m just his sidechic, I’m okay!”

“Be mine, Louis Howard! Kyah!”

“Undress me, daddy Giles! Kyah!”

“Play my pearl, Sid! Kyah! I’m willing to be played if it’s you!”

“Marry me, Alyn my husband! Kyah! You’re so handsome!”

See? They’re bunch of crazy people. Who in their right mind would say such things? Well, I’m not saying that those five aren’t handsome but the words they are saying like, “Undress me”, “Marry me”, “Play my pearl”, “Willing to be a mistress”, “Be mine”, are so fucking disgusting. My gosh, I feel like soon my ears will bleed from what I am hearing. Does no one even have a plan to calm them down? Tsk, I just rolled my eyes and crossed my arms over my chest. Whatever, they just have to make sure to keep quiet when the five men start playing on stage.

“Mic test,” Giles tapped the mic to test it, “Hello?”

After he said, ‘hello’ there’s the squeal of the students again. Damn, I can tell that they are so crazy over those five jerks.

Giles stood beside the microphone while holding the rhythm guitar. I think Byron is keyboardist. Sid is holding bass guitar. And I guess Louis is the lead guitarist while Alyn is the drummer of their band. Woah, cool. I didn’t know that they can play instruments, and the only one I know about Giles is that he likes music. I didn’t expect that he have a band together with his cousins. And it’s… awesome.

“Hello, everyone!” Giles waved his hand, “Before we start we would like to greet a happy birthday our school Director Mr. Jung!” And then he turned to the left of the stage where that ‘Mr. Jung’ guy was sitting.

Everyone clapped their hands, and I was one of them. Mr. Jung stood up and waved his hand to the crowd while smiling ear to ear. Hmm, this is my first time seeing his face maybe because I’m just new here. I think he’s in his early 50’s but it’s not obvious because he still looks younger than his age. I’m really good at predicting a person’s age so I can say he’s in his early 50’s, but I’m not sure if my prediction is correct.

“And now, let’s begin!” After Giles shouted Alyn started to strike the drum using the drum sticks. And then they started to play their instruments.

Gosh, he looks so cool playing drums. I want to learn how to play that too! Will he accept me as his student?

“Hey, you’re here!” He tapped my shoulder.

I turned my head to my left and saw Troy, “Yeah.” I smiled and we both watched the Mugen played on stage.

Giles has a very nice voice. It’s cold and you will be attracted to his voice especially the way he closes his eyes. He could obviously feel every lyric coming out of his mouth.

“I like his voice,” Troy praised Giles.

I nodded, “He really could captivate everyone’s heart with that voice,” I giggled.

Troy chuckled, “Did he captivate yours then?”

I turned to him, “Of course not!”

“Oh, I thought…” he smiled, “That’s good then.”

I didn’t answer anymore. I just shrugged and looked back again to the stage where the Mugen was playing. A smile automatically formed in my face while watching them play. I’m so proud of them.

They played three songs on stage, and then they went down on stage.

I turned to Troy, “I’ll go first, I’ll be back in the classroom.”

“Hmm?” Troy turned to me, “The celebration isn’t over yet. Are you going back to your classroom?”

I nodded, “I want to rest.”

He also nodded, “Okay. Do you want me to go with you?”

“No,” I nodded and smiled. “I can do it. Thank you, Troy.”

“You’re always welcome,” and then he winked at me.

I giggled and said my goodbye to him before I turned away. He’s cute but I only think of him as a friend and no nothing else. I hope he considers me a friend even though we don’t know each other very well. It’s nice to have a friend again. But I just hope it doesn’t happen again like Angela.

[At home]

“Missy!” Sid immediately hugged me as soon as I stepped on the door.

“What the heck?” I just said that out of shock at what he did.

He let go in his embrace with me and smiled at me, “Do I look handsome on the stage?”

My left brow arched, “Ha?” What is he asking? Does it matter if he look good or not?

“Just answer!” He pouted.

This guy is really like a child. I heaved a sigh before answering, “Yeah. You’re handsome, are we done now?”

“Sus, I’m more handsome.” Alyn murmured as he walked past me.

It’s already dark outside. Where is he planning to go? Hmp. Maybe he has some urgent matter. I just shrugged and went to my room upstairs.
